It differs from C. guizhouensis by the absence of broad yellow patches on the median pronotum and lateral tegmina, the genitalia six times as wide as the basal stem of the external paramere (vs. four times), the external paramere three times as long as the width of basal stem (vs. twice), the outer process twice as wide as long (vs. as long as wide), the inner process narrowly bifid (vs. widely bifid), the virga extending beyond the apex of the genital lobe when not extruded (vs. concealed within the genital lobe), and the basal vesicle near as long as the external paramere (vs. two-thirds as long).</p><p>Description.</p><p>Male.
